Accreditation
The Mechanical Engineering programmes are accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. An accredited degree means that graduates are deemed to have met, part or all, of the academic requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer, and are in a strong position to move on to achieve professional engineering status after a period of initial professional development in industry.
The MEng degrees fully meets the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer. The BEng will meet, in part, the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer and graduates will need to complete an approved format of further learning.
What is Accreditation?
Accreditation is a voluntary activity initiated by an institution that requires a rigourous self-evaluation and an independent, objective appraisal of the overall educational quality by third parties. Accreditation emphasises quality assurance and a commitment to continuous quality enhancement.
